[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's funny, my parents didn't care at all about my living experience, where I slept, if I had food to eat or enough money for necessities. I look back on it and it's hard to comprehend, because they were generally very good parents and are nurturing people and not remotely poor. I would be mortified if my kids lived the way I lived in college. So I believe there is a middle ground.[/quote]

Yes college is like high school used to be. High school is like middle school. Middle school is elementary

The children aren’t ready for any independence until after grad school and 2 years living at home.[/quote]

They are starting life much later and the sad thing is I’m worried they are going to die much younger.  The lack of exercise and sunlight along with so sich sterile germ/mold free surroundings while their bodies grew is potentially going to wind up deadly I fear .[/quote]

Agree. The youth population looks sickly compared to before. I was a beach lifeguard and they used to have no issue at all filling jobs. I’m told by the captain that it’s difficult to find young people that can pass the physical tests. The military is saying the same. Standards are dropping in the physical fitness areas.[/quote]
